The fix is fine, I'm not complaining about the changes.

However,

I'm running 'scons' against python 2.7.3 and it's building fine with
your patch reverted. Is there something I'm missing about the way that
the scons build works? The documentation says that just 'scons' is all
that is necessary, is that not the case?
